Children’s Services

During this COVID-19 outbreak Lanark County and the Province of Ontario recognizes health care and other essential front line workers must continue to go to work.

In order to support them with the care of their children, Lanark County Children’s Services is providing the provision of licensed child care, free of charge for residents of Lanark County as well as those that work in Lanark County.

While we recognize the safest place for children is at home we also recognize that this is not an option for some essential service workers. The approved child care providers are required to follow existing health and safety requirements and have a plan in place should any staff, children or parents be exposed to the virus.

Lanark County is working with our local Medical Officer of Health and approved child care operators to ensure that additional precautionary safety measures are put in place.

All EarlyON Child & Family Centre Programs are Cancelled as of March 14, 2020. This comes as a result of precautionary measures associated to COVID-19. While the local health unit indicates the risk remains low at this time we want to align our direction with the Province.
